Potioncat:
Ohhhh, what we need is a new sister-group! HPfGU fan-fiction review 
board. (It would be a good idea.)

And because I know I'll have to iron my hands for a non-canon related 
post, to avoid the sin of writing a one-liner, I'll add a bit more.

Fan fiction is another approach to examining the events and 
characters of the HP series. It is as valid as discussion is. 
Granted, there is some horrible fanfiction out there. There are some 
pretty awful discussion posts too.
